GlossaryNeutralizing Antibodies

block pathogens from infecting cells by binding to them

Neutralizing antibodies (NAbs) are a specific type of antibody that can directly interfere with the ability of pathogens, such as viruses or bacteria, to infect cells. They achieve this by binding to the pathogen's surface proteins, effectively blocking the pathogen's entry into host cells and preventing infection. This makes NAbs a crucial component of the immune response and a key focus in vaccine development and therapeutic treatments.
